he is so big and they both are growing so fast its a little bittersweet, he is all signed up for soccer and he is so excited, i got him a soccer ball today and some shin <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">gards</span>, he is so cute and because he is still a little guy i have to special order his shoes online!

He is learning to go on the potty and he is really starting to be like a big kid not so much a baby, which makes my heart ache but i know i have to let them grow up and teach them how to be good people and men and grow to make me proud. gosh if its this hard to let go of the 'baby' years i cant even imaging how its going to be to have to let them go to college.I now understand what parents mean when they say 'it goes by so fast' because i cant even believe it has been 4 years already, i love them so much those kids are my whole world, my whole heart, and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">i'm</span> so proud to be their mom, God has blessed me so much with the amazing family i have!!!! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">im</span> posting new pics right now of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">jakes</span> birthday! thanks for reading my 'mom moment' <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">xoxoxo</span><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">shonnte</span><br />I have pictures up on <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">myspace</span>, if you want me to i can post a couple here just let me know!Vashonntehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02034600258272763053noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4628537110435352595.post-54703502863354597022008-07-21T15:08:00.000-07:002008-07-21T15:22:02.409-07:00WOW its been a while!I know its been 10 years since my last post!

Paul and I are keeping busy working and trying to spend the little time we have with each other and our family, even if its grocery shopping, we started a pretty fun game....bumper carts the kids love it although I don't think I can say the same for fellow shoppers haha!

I am very thankful for what has been happening but it has caused me to almost abandon my blog. So I will do my best to log on and blog and visit my friends because I miss you all so very much, its just when I get home or when I am done working the last thing I want to do is be on a computer or a phone! Also if you can send prayers our way for my Aunt my family would greatly appreciate it, she had 2 ruptured annurisims and 6 small ones that didn't rupture a week ago Saturday. She has gone through 2 brain surgeries and she's a trooper she is doing well, talking and they are going to have her start walking I think tomorrow because she has been stuck in a bed for 8 days, they think she may have had a stroke after the 2nd surgery because her left side is a little weak, but she's a fighter and I know she will pull through, and God is watching over her. He has to be because she is doing so well after all of that.

I have to kiss my hand and hit the roof of my car when driving under yellow lights for good luck.<br />2. I HATE HATE HATE multiples of 5 so whenever I set an alarm or put anything in the microwave it has to be a weird number like 7:18 or 3:22 I just don't like 5's or 0's.<br />3. Every morning before my husband leaves I have to tell him to be careful and we always give each other a kiss and a hug and say 'I love you' before either of us leave.<br />4. When my house starts to get messy I feel like I have really bad anxiety. (dumb I know!)<br />5. When it snows I have to run outside in a tank top, panties and no socks or shoes just cause I have done it my whole life, I used to make snow angels in bikini, I'm glad I let that one go.<br />6. My shelves in my closet can't stay organized to save my life, but I always have everyone else's looking great and I'm the one putting everything away!<br />7. I can't let the kids go to sleep without saying their prayers with them.<br />8. When I go to the grocery store there is ALWAYS one thing I forget, even if I have a list..UGH!<br />9. If I see a penny and it's heads up I have to pick it up blow on it and put it in my right pocket and if I have no pockets I put it in my right boob.<br />10. I have to talk to my mom and my dad at least once a day.

Also I went and walked/ran 1.5 miles yesterday I had to leave early because it started to get really cold and windy and Jordan's cheeks were turning red and looking chapped. When we got home I put them to bed at 7:30 and my husband and I watched a movie and a couple of shows then went to bed. I am really proud of myself my husband is too. I am so busy and some days tired but since I have been eating better and just doing pilates I feel like I have more energy! So here I go again today, and the kids are already working my last nerve...its going to be a fun one! It's days like this when God gets me through it all!
